Francis JAMBON
Assistant Professor in Computer Science
Laboratoire d'Informatique de Grenoble – Université Grenoble Alpes
Research
My research activities at Laboratoire d'Informatique de Grenoble (M-PSI and MeTAH teams) relate to concepts, methods and techniques to automate the analysis of humans interactions with digital systems in several contexts: interactive systems, cobotics, training environments, geolocation systems... My research contributes to the field of computer science but is also linked to research questions from psycho-ergonomics, pedagogy, behavioral psychology, time geography...
Current research activities
In-line analysis of user activities. The objective is to analyze in real-time human interactions with various systems (cobots, training simulators...)  from heterogeneous types of traces (user perceptions, user actions, and system state).
See also: the projects and platforms pages.
Past research activities
· Analysis of recurrent mobility patterns
· Eye-gaze interaction
· Experimental protocols for the evaluation of mobile and ubiquitous systems
· Functional test of interactive systems based on task models
· Formal methods for the development of dependable interactive systems
· Human error prevention techniques in man-machine interaction
